Subs: Akash Deep Suyash Prabhudessai Karn Sharma David Willey Anuj Rawat
RCB had a near-perfect game last time out, returning to winning ways. Kohli scored a half-century, Vyshak and Siraj got wickets as the Du Plessis-led outfit cantered to an easy win. They will face a stiffer challenge against CSK, with it likely to be MS Dhoni’s last IPL game at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.
Hasaranga’s return has been a huge boost. The SriLankan looked rusty last game but expect him to be on point for the game. Maxwell is likely to chip in with the ball in hand given CSK’s plethora of left-handers. Mahipal Lomror meanwhile will bat at 3 and is the side’s designated spin hitter.
Josh Hazlewood has joined up with the squad but is unlikely to feature against his former team. The Australian pacer only arrived earlier this week and is still some way off match fitness.
“I probably won’t be quite ready to go right then, but (after) another week in India to touch things up skills wise I should be ready to go hopefully,” Hazlewood had told The Age before departing for India.
